… of RpoS, a specialized sigma factor. RpoS-dependent gene expression leads to general
stress resistance of cells. During rapid growth, RpoS translation is inhibited and any RpoS …

… Therefore, this review summarizes the involvement and contribution of RpoS in virulence
of RpoS-bearing pathogens. We place special focus on studies that have tested rpoS in host (…

… core RpoS regulon is critical if we are to fully understand RpoS function. It may be useful to
think of RpoS … As RpoS levels are lower than those of RpoD even in stationary phase [26], it is …

… The interaction of the rpoS mRNA with a small RNA, DsrA, disrupts … RpoS translation when
DsrA is absent. Clones carrying rprA (RpoS regulator RNA) increased the translation of RpoS. …

… role of RpoS inPseudomonas aeruginosa physiology and pathogenesis, we constructed
rpoS mutants in several strains of P. aeruginosa, including PAO1. The PAO1 rpoS mutant was …

… native rpoS gene and an rpoS-lacZ fusion. Studies of lacZ transcription in these strains
indicated that rpoS was not regulated by RhlR-RhlI. We also generated an rpoS null mutant. This …

… is controlled by RpoS during entry into stationary phase of cultures growing in rich medium.
The expression of known RpoS-dependent genes was confirmed to be regulated by RpoS, …

… Here we report that deletion of rpoS greatly reduces the ability of E. coli to grow in biofilms
… was that rpoS was expressed only during biofilm growth. We measured patterns of rpoS …

… of rpoS would also be required for rpoS-mediated negative regulation of ompF. Thus, the
loss of an rpoS-… a functional rpoS gene. Moreover, the absence of both the regulatory factor …

… pFY5 pFY4 with rpoS coding region interrupted with cm cassette (rpoS::cm) This study … of
this function for rpoS in another species, namely, the requirement of rpoS for the expression byY…
